Real Estate IB Groups?

Looking to get into real estate investment banking, but not sure which groups exist in NYC/Chicago/Dallas. Is anyone able to confirm which groups currently exist in any of those cities? Thanks.

They do but they are objectively weaker due to the fact that all they can offer is M&A strategic advisory. Most of what they do are private capital raises.

A lot of real estate involves an inherit need for some sort of debt vehicle in their transactions and bulge brackets can offer that due to having their own source of lending capital.

Historically, Evercore and Moelis have done well in the space, but I wouldn’t compare them to BB, especially when you look at their respective exits.
